Hello, I am Miss Young. A scammer often fails in making his victim pay him money. But he does not give up if he thinks it is still possible to convince the victim. He could try a new scam with hidden millions or a big lottery winning. Another approach is a compensation letter where he promises the victim a big sum as compensation. The compensation money does not exist, - it is simply the start of a new scam. The letter below is an example of such a letter.

I am happy to inform you about
My success

Partner from

Ask him to send you the total $550,000.00 (FIVE HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND US
DOLLARS) certified bank Check, which I raised in your favour for your

winnings
In this matter. I appreciated your efforts at that time very much. So
Feel free
And get in touched with my secretary and give him your address where to send
The check to you.

Please do let me know immediately you receive the Check to enable us share
the
Joy after all the sufferness at that time. In the moment, I am very busy here
Because of the investment projects, which the new partner and me are
having at
Hand, finally, remember that I have forwarded instruction to the secretary on
Your behalf to receive that money. So feel free to get in touch with him (Mr.
